INTRODUCTION
WHAT IS THE MCP212X DEVELOPER’S DAUGHTER BOARD?
Other boards may also be supported. Please refer to the MCP212X Developer’s Daughter Board and
desired PICDEM™ Demo Board documentation to determine if the boards you are using are supported.
For proper orientation of the daugter board to the PICDEM™ demo board, Revision 5 of the PICDEM™
HPC Explorer Board is recommended. Revision 4 will function, but the direction of the optical transceiver
will be facing the same side as the serial port connector.
The MCP212X Developer’s Daughter Board allows the MCP212X TX and RX signals to be routed to
different header connections. This may allow the system to support multiple configurations, such as being
either connected to the PICmicro
communicate via the DB-9 connector).

PICDEM™ DEMO BOARD SUPPORT
This chapter provides an overview of the MCP212X Developer’s Daughter Board and
covers the following topics:
• What is the MCP212X Developer’s Daughter Board?
• What the MCP212X Developer’s Daughter Board kit includes
The MCP212X Developer’s Daughter Board is used to evaluate and demonstrate the
MCP2122 or MCP2120 IrDA
system designer to implement a low-cost, wireless IR port in any application providing
support for IrDA standard bit encoding/decoding.
The MCP212X Developer’s Daughter Board is designed to interface to several of the
“new” low-cost PICmicro
be interfaced into your application. Multiple header interfaces are available that allow
support for the many different PICDEM™ Demo Boards, as well as being easily
jumpered into systems for development purposes. Table 1-1 shows some of the
PICDEM demo boards that are supported.
Depending on the features of the PICmicro Microcontroller Unit (MCU) and the
selected demo board, the MCP2122 TX and RX signals can either be connected
(jumpered) directly to the RS-232 line driver or to the PICmicro MCU’s RX and TX
signals. The PICmicro MCU could process that data and then send it out of the UART.
